Dragon Con Independent Short Film Festival

Director: Matthew M. Foster

We focus each year on showcasing the finest independent films of the fantastic. We welcome not only Sci-Fi, Fantasy, and Horror films, but any film of the imagination that steps out of the slice-of-life category. That includes short animated films of all types.

The Dragon Con Independent Film Festival is a four day event of film screenings and panels, with directors, producers, writers, actors, SFX, and makeup artists all sharing their expertise. The Festival competition is primarily for short films (under 60 minutes), but we do take a few independent features.

Please go to the Main Festival Page for more information on the Dragon Con Film Festival and on Film Panels at Dragon Con.

Panels and Programming

With all our great films, you might forget our panels. Don't. The directors, writers, and producers of our films will discuss their experiences, and tell you how they created their works. Plus don't miss our seminars on the technical aspects of film production. You want to make a film? We'll show you how.
